Interesting Summerslam Note

[Guest Your Olympic Hero]

Although Summerslam started in 1988, it wasn't until 1993 that there was a World title match main event.

 

1988 - Megapowers vs. Megabucks tag match.

1989 - Hogan & Beefcake vs. DiBiase & Zeus.

1990 - Warrior defeats Rude in a world title cage match, but I believe Hogan vs. Earthquake came on last and was definitely the more hyped of the two matches going into the show

1991 - Hogan & Warrior vs. Slaughter, Taker, & Mustafa

1992 - Bret vs. Bulldog, IC title match ... The Savage/Warrior World title match occured in the middle of the car

1993 - Finally, Lex vs. Yoko is the main event.

JUST TO ADD

 

The KOTR didn't have a WORLD title match for the main until 1996...

 

1993-Bret Beats Bammer in tourny finals

1994- Piper beats Lawler

1995-Bammer and Nash Beats Sid and Tatanka

 

1996-Shawn beats Bulldog in world title match

 

We could do this with the rumble since the The first threee Rumbles weren't wwe title matches and they waited until 1996 to have it headline again and actually the WWE Title match headlined 1996-1998 (Taker/Bret, Sid/HBK and HBK/UT)...

 

A World Title wasn't main event of Survivor Series for 5 years

 

1987-Andre the Giant, One Man Gang, King Kong Bundy, Butch Reed, & Rick Rude Vs Hulk Hogan, Paul Orndorff, Don Muraco, Ken Patera, & Bam Bam Bigelow

1988-Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Hercules, Koko B. Ware, & Hillbilly Jim Vs Ted DiBiase, Big Boss Man, Akeem, Haku, & Red Rooster

1989-Ultimate Warrior, Jim Neidhart, & The Rockers (Ultimate Warriors) Vs Bobby Heenan, Andre the Giant, Haku, & Arn Anderson

 

1990-Ultimate Survior Match

1991-LOD and Bossman Vs Natural Diasters and IRS

 

and 1992 Bret and Shawn fought in a champion vs champion match

Actually, Rude/Warrior was the last match. So, I guess your little "interesting fact" is incorrect.

I said "I believe," not that it was definitely a fact... so your asshole comments are pretty much unneeded here.

The Undertaker has been at every SS since his first match on the PPV in 1992.

 

He was also involved with the Match Made In Heaven at SS 1991.

Wow.

Yeah, after Kamala it was pretty much downhill...

 

But seriously, the three I think you are refering to were in a row, which is kinda interesting, reward for a couple years straight and then back to the "funhouse" matches.
